Agostino Brunias 00015
Artista: Agostino Brunias
Siglo XVIII · Caribe
Colección: Agostino Brunias
This 18th-century print by Agostino Brunias portrays the complex social hierarchy of the British West Indies, featuring an elegantly dressed 'Barbados Mulatto Girl' at its center. The scene, set in a Caribbean landscape with palm trees and a plantation in the background, depicts two darker-skinned women, likely enslaved or servants, engaged in daily tasks. The work exemplifies Brunias's interest in documenting diverse colonial populations and customs, albeit often with an idealized gaze for a European audience.
